Access to Reports from rbEnterprise with Firebird...

rbuser

Hi,

I just upgraded my license from enterprise to server.
Now I want to access to my current reports, stored in a firebird db.

After I started my rbServer app. I can access to the reportexplorer, but
if I open one report, I got the message:

"Processing request for report Alle Ordner\TestBericht
EReportLoadFromDatabaseError,Class TRBLine not found"

What does this message mean?

1. "Processing request for report Alle Ordner\TestBericht "

This means that you requested a report called TestBericht located in the
folder path Alle Ordner.

2. "EReportLoadFromDatabaseError"

This indicates an error occured loading the report definition from the
database

3. "Class TRBLine not found"

This indicates that the report definition contains a custom component class
called TrbLine, but the class is not registered with the Server application.
In other words you didi not include the unit containing the class in the
'uses' clause of the sertver application.

You need to include in the 'uses' clause the units to all classes used by
your reports. Here is an article that contains a list of the common classes
that you might be using.

Article: Registering Classes with the Server.
------------------------------------------------------------

In order to minimize the overhead in reporting applications, ReportBuilder
employs a unit level registration scheme (similar to component registration
in Delphi.), whereby components and functionality can be added at the
discretion of the developer. A report server application needs to include
all of the classes required to execute the reports on the server.

daDataModule DADE support. (DataModule related classes.)

ReportBuilder also uses the unit registration scheme to control which
database connectivity options are provided by the application. The following
DADE plug-ins are provided with ReportBuilder (for more options see the
friends | data | DADE Plug-ins section of our web site,
